What if Tiana made a deal that changed everything?

Disney’s The Princess and the Frog gets takes a new twist in this young adult graphic novel that reimagines Tiana’s battle against Dr. Facilier and romance with Naveen.


Sometimes life in the Big Easy is tough. No one knows that better than Tiana, though she also believes that hard work can go a long way. But when the notorious Dr. Facilier offers her a deal she can’t refuse, it alters the course of her life in an instant.

Soon Tiana finds herself in a new reality where all her deepest desires are realized: She finally owns a restaurant, her friends are safe and sound, and most miraculous of all, her beloved father is still alive. She's got everything she’s ever wanted. . . .

But as Mardi Gras approaches, and with it the anniversary of her deal, New Orleans grows increasingly eerie, and new threats crop up daily. It’s up to Tiana—with some help from Naveen and Charlotte—to set things right or risk losing all she holds dear.

This lively and joyous adaptation of fan-favorite A Twisted Tale novel Almost There introduces a Tiana who takes control of her destiny and fights for her dreams—and for those she loves.
